    Winemaker Notes

    Intense bouquet of small wild fruits, crushed strawberries and blueberries. In the mouth, it is well structured,with an explosion of fruity flavors and hints of licorice. A beautiful representation of the terroir exhibiting purity and freshness.

    Enjoy this Vacqueyras with red meats such as grilled ribeye “à la fleur de sel” (high hand sea salt). You can also enjoy it with turkey, BBQ, sweet potatoes, roast beef or lamb with thyme. Best if decanted.

    Clefs des Murailles, France
    In 1854, the Double family acquired the Chateau de Beaupre, near Aix-en-Provence. With the experience gained as part of a well reputed winemakers family in the Coteaux d'Aix-en-Provence appellation, Maxime Double (the third generation) decided to launch his own range of wines. Maxime Double creates new wines in partnership with producers from different regions, controlling all aspects from the organoleptic quality of the wine to labeling and packaging. The aim is to bring out the unique personality of each wine and respond to targeted market needs.

    With bold fruit flavors and accents of sweet spice, Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre form the base of the classic Rhône Red Blend, while Carignan, Cinsault and Counoise often come in to play. Though they originated from France’s southern Rhône Valley, with some creative interpretation, Rhône blends have also become popular in other countries. Somm Secret—Putting their own local spin on the Rhône Red Blend, those from Priorat often include Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. In California, it is not uncommon to see Petite Sirah make an appearance.

    Vacqueyras Wine

    Rhone, France

    This charming appellation within the Côtes du Rhône Villages was second only to Gigondas to earn its own village appellation status. Its wines may be red, rosé or white—though hardly any is white. Its high winemaking standards follow many of the same rules as Chateauneuf-du-Pape. But for Vacqueyras red wines, half of the grapes have to be Grenache and the remainder is usually a combination of Syrah, Mourvedre and Cinsault.

    While they can be robust and rustic in style, typically a great Vacqueyras red combines delicate aromas with intense fruit and a bright, crisp texture. They certainly don’t lack any character and show an abundance of black cherry, wild berry, plum, fig, baking spice, and a touch of game or smoke.
